Abstract
Stannosis is a condition in which tin-oxide is deposited in lung tissue after inhalation. Tin-oxide is radiologically visible although there is no tissue reaction to its presence. Two examples of the condition are described. It is of value to recognise the condition and so avoid unnecessary invasive diagnostic procedures.Entities:
